[ For a long time, Akane had been scared of heights. He knew it was a bit silly, but it was hard to go up on hills or near the ledge on a ceiling. What made it even more silly though, was that he was a bird. He hid his wings in embarrassment, since all the other birds seemed to love to fly and knew how to do it perfectly, but Akane didn't even know how to fly. But that was fine, he just lived like a human, wings bound to his back and body dressed in bulky sweaters to hide it. There weren't even that many bird people in the city, so no one really suspected it.
However, when he was on a school trip, he didn't expect there to be a boy locked into a cage (even if it was a big one), with wings on his back. It made his own wing twitch. He didn't even know this was a thing people did, he didn't know any other birds these days, and in his town they were all treated pretty well.
He had been dragged along, but later noticed that he must have dropped his glasses (or did he forget to bring them? He wasn't sure), so he started to look for them. And somehow, he had gotten lost. Of course. He had no idea the place had closed, and that he was about to crash right into the bars on the cage the bird was in. ]
